acra-tokens #
acra-tokens is a command-line utility used for various token operations.
Each tokenization process performed by AcraServer or AcraTranslator adds one more token/encrypted-data pair into token storage (BoltDB or Redis). As a result, the token storage only grows in size. The amount of unused, unneeded tokens will grow as well. Obviously, this will sooner or later cause performance issues, not talking about wasted resources.
And this is where acra-tokens utility can help.
Since Acra tracks token access time, you can, for example,
use acra-tokens to remove tokens that were accessed more than N days ago.
In some cases, “accessed long time ago” does not mean it is useless now, you can first disable old tokens
and then run some tests of your application to ensure it works properly.
If some disabled token is actually needed, you can enable it back.
And then, if everything is OK, remove remaining disabled tokens.
Here is the list of acra-tokens subcommands:
